I have used this tent on several hikes. Just completed a 8 day thru-hike of the NPT. One of my tent pole ends broke on the last day. I am in the process of using the Cascade repair shop. This tent has been my go to this Fall.
I use this tent for winter camping in high winds at altitude, and its performance and comfort are superior in every way. A fantastic piece of gear for serious adventurers needing a solid tent for the worst wind and cold.
